Chapter 19 Zheng Clan Studies
Zheng Yun and Zheng Sheng said goodbye outside the door of his residence.
As soon as Zheng Sheng entered the door, Zheng Cheng saw him and immediately ran over and said hurriedly: "Shizi, it's not good." That Liu Neng ran away. ”
"Liu Neng?" Zheng Sheng was not very impressed by this name, but he quickly remembered that it was a skinny, but stubborn and fierce child: "Isn't he taking care of that Wu Yunlu with another child surnamed Song?" ”
Zheng Quan didn't know where to start: "Shizi, in short, that Liu Neng and Wu Yunlu have all run away!" Song Zhi and Shi Zuole are back, and they are inside. ”
Zheng Sheng was really curious about this matter, Wu Yunlu was not seriously injured, he woke up to leave, and Shi Zuole couldn't stop him. But the two children just ran one, why don't you go?
Zheng Sheng walked into the room and saw that Wang Jun was in a hurry, the Song Zhi looked frightened, and the little girl Liu Wei'er also had a worried look in her eyes.
Shi Zuole was looking at them coldly, looking gloating.
Zheng Sheng came in, Wang Jun took two steps forward, and wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth and didn't say anything, he lowered his head a little dejectedly.
"Can you tell me what's going on?" Zheng Sheng asked.
Song Zhi lowered his head and whispered: "After Brother Wu Zi woke up yesterday, Liu Neng said that the prince took us in. Then, Brother Wu Zi was leaving, and asked us to tell the prince that he was very grateful for the kindness of the prince and would repay it in the future. The four of us will be left to the care of the prince. ”
Zheng Sheng had a good impression of the young man who said, "If I can eat enough, how can I defeat me", and it was normal for him to say this: "Since Wu Yunlu is leaving." So, what about Liu Neng? What's going on with him? ”
"Brother Nengzi listened to Brother Wu Zi's words, and he wanted to go with him, so he left." Song Zhi whispered.
Zheng Sheng smiled helplessly, he had seen before that Liu Neng had a hatred for him, or not against him, and hated the entire powerful clan.
When Wang Jun wanted to take refuge in Zheng Sheng, Liu Neng was very indignant.
Zheng Sheng suddenly looked at the only girl among them: "Liu Neng, Liu Yan'er?" You are all from Wudu, I forgot to ask before, are you brothers and sisters? ”
Liu Wen'er shook her head: "No, Liu Neng is my clansman." He's my cousin by generation. ”
Zheng Sheng thought thoughtfully, "This matter ends here. Everyone's settled, right? During this time, Zheng Quan, you are responsible for taking care of them. ”
Zheng Cheng agreed with some excitement, he finally had a little brother.
June has arrived. Zheng Sheng has been living in a simple house these days, and there are almost no people who come to look for him. It is said that he, the sister-in-law of the second master of the house, has returned from other places, and there should be many people to visit, at least there will be children of the same age who will come to him, right? But no one came, and he didn't seem to be popular with everyone. Zheng Sheng didn't bother to care about the thoughts of the clansmen.
Zheng Yun often came over and greeted him for the patriarch Zheng Yuan. Zheng Bao also came once. As for Zheng Ming's eldest brother, he never came over at all.
Zheng Sheng's residence is a small courtyard with several wings, and there are clusters of green bamboos planted in front of his window, which is quite green. Therefore, Zheng Sheng named this courtyard Qingzhuju.
Zheng Sheng is here, and now there are Dong Ye, Zheng Quan, Wang Jun, Song Zhi, Liu Wei'er plus him, a total of six people. He couldn't get used to eating the food in the Zheng family's kitchen, so he had to start the fire himself. Fortunately, Dongye's craftsmanship is not bad, although it is not as good as Bubo, but Zheng Sheng is quite satisfied.
The fifth day of the sixth month of June will soon come, and this day is the day when the Zheng clan school will open, and many foreign families and officials will also come. Zheng Sheng was originally going to participate, but Zheng Sheng heard that there was a rather complicated process of opening the clan, and now that so many people were participating, Zheng Sheng didn't want to be visited, so he naturally did not go over on the grounds that he was not feeling well.
The next day, the school officially started, Zheng Sheng left Zheng Cheng and them all in Qingzhuju, and followed Zheng Yun, who appeared again, to the clan school located in the northwest corner of Zheng's house.
It is said that it is a patriarchal study, but in fact it is a small hall, and then a dozen children ranging from six or seven years old to teenagers are thrown into it. Teachers do not teach in a unified manner, but teach individually according to each person's different learning pace. This is also the teaching mode that Zheng Sheng knows about reading a paragraph, explaining a paragraph, and memorizing a paragraph.
Zheng Sheng sat down and looked around. Uh, no, it's looking around the back row. The seats are sorted by age, with the younger ones in front and the older ones in the back – the rules have been laid out before, and there is a teacher at the door who reminds them which row to sit in.
There are three small desks in each row with a total of six rows, Zheng Sheng came early, chose the desk near the door in the front row, and then Zheng Shengan sat on the straw mat.
He turned his head to look at the three classmates who had already arrived. The two of them he knew, they were Zheng Hao and Zheng Ye who were with Zheng Yang that day. Zheng Ye is 14 years old, and he is sitting in the penultimate row near the base of the wall on the other side, resting on the table. Zheng Hao was ten years old, sitting in the third row, and when he saw Zheng Sheng coming in, he walked over and saluted, "Shizi." ”
"Brother." Zheng Sheng got up and saluted back.
"Shizi, I'm sorry for the facts of that day. However, Zheng Yang and Zheng Ye have no bad intentions. ”
Zheng Sheng felt funny, the two eldest ones were rude and arrogant, and the slightly younger Zheng Hao was more delicate. Zheng Sheng didn't care about the events of that day: "It's nothing, I don't care." ”
Zheng Sheng looked at the children who were also sitting in the third row, at the same desk as Zheng Ye. At this time, he was sitting meticulously and precariously, with a bamboo slip on the table, and he was studying carefully. Zheng Sheng was a little surprised, Zheng really has such a child who studies hard?
"Who's that guy?"
Zheng Hao glanced at the child, then at his brother, and then at the division commander at the door, and found that none of them had noticed the conversation between him and Zheng Sheng, so he said softly in a very small voice: "His name is Zheng Shang, and he is the nominal son of Zheng Ming's cousin." ”
Zheng Shang? Is he Zheng Shang? Zheng Sheng nodded, and whispered a little seriously: "Zheng Shang is the son of the eldest brother, what is the nominal son?" ”
Zheng Hao was dumbfounded and said sarcastically: "That's what everyone said." ”
was communicating with Zheng Hao, when other children finally came in, and Zheng Hao was so busy that he returned to his seat. Zheng Sheng sat down and began to think about one thing. Zheng Shang.
This is a taboo term for Zheng Ming.
The year 275 is not only bitter memories for Zheng Ming.
This year, a marriage contract was made earlier, and two sixteen-year-old young people, Zheng Ze and Han Qing, childhood sweethearts, got married. In the early years, Zheng Yuan's sister married Han Qing's uncle, which was Zheng Han's first marriage, and Zheng Luo and Han Qing only made the relationship between the two families closer.
But this year, the fortunes of the Zheng and Han families were caught off guard. The notoriety of the rebellion was immediately deducted from the heads of the Zheng and Han families. All the people of the two families were imprisoned, and the difficult and difficult life tormented everyone until the fall of the Wu Kingdom.
Zheng Ze changed his name, Zheng Ming. It loses all its meaning, and it always feels weird. After all, three years ago, his wife Han Qing gave birth to a chubby son for him.
Then, Zheng Tan came back, and Zheng's waist straightened all of a sudden.
But from then on, rumors spread that Han Qing had done something sorry for Zheng Meng during his solitary confinement and that Zheng Shang was not Zheng Ming's parent. Mrs. Han did not defend herself, nor did she deny it. But since then, she has lived with her son in the darkest corner of the Zheng family.
Zheng Meng married two more concubines, and ignored Zheng Shang's mother and son, as if Zheng Shang's sister-in-law and his wife did not exist at all.
